It can be confidently stated that Iran's aviation industry has suffered the most from the unilateral sanctions imposed by the United States, while these sanctions contradict specific international regulations that other sanctioned industries lack such legal backing. Most writings and arguments presented to demonstrate the illegitimacy of the sanctions against Iran's aviation industry have thus far centered around general issues such as human rights violations and threats to human safety. However, the specific rules of international air law provide the best foundation for filing an independent complaint against the United States, having been utilized by other countries in similar matters. These rules include: the contradiction of the sanctions with the international characteristics of aviation regulations and the condemnation of the extraterritorial application of national laws concerning non-American entities; incompatibility with the development of international civil aviation; incompatibility with the prohibition of the misuse of civil aviation; violation of the principle of equality of opportunities in international civil aviation; and, ultimately, a breach of aviation safety. Furthermore, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), as a dedicated forum for resolving disputes in civil aviation, offers unique capacity regarding jurisdiction and procedures for filing complaints that is not found in other sanction-related matters. This article, after reviewing the unsuccessful efforts to lift the sanctions under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), examines the aforementioned substantive aspects and the proper process for filing a complaint in the specialized forum of ICAO.
